[EVO 4G General] mad-murdock:
I am pretty new to cm6. Right now I wait for the final release tomorrow. But after that I think I will use nightly. I love bleeding edge on all my Linux systems...

So a simple question:

When do you have to wipe, if you flash nightlys a few times a week? Is it okay to wipe system, boot and cache, but leave data and sdext alone?
[EVO 4G General] barnacles10:
First off, final will not be out tomorrow. We might see rc 1. Second, no you do normally not have to wipe for nightlies unless you have issues.
[EVO 4G General] mad-murdock:
Thanks for that info. Looking forward to the rc's then...
[EVO 4G General] posguy99:
Build #125 is out.
[EVO 4G General] ViViDboarder:
Haha, 4G is a minor update.

Yea I get what it means, just thr terminology is a bit funny for the huge feature.
[EVO 4G General] mrmylanman:
lol yeah if they had a changelog for all the nightlies and such, it'd be like:

Minor bugfix regarding bluetooth stability

Optimize battery life performance

blah blah blah blah blah

Added 4G support for EVO

blah blah blah blah blah

blah blah blah blah
[EVO 4G General] Aerodynamix:
Just curious, what do you guys think of this new CM kernel vs. Snap 7.6?

I've been running Snap for about 2 weeks and then I just flashed #123 and kept that kernel. It actually feels a lot smoother imo, but the benchmarks don't compare at all. What've you guys noticed?

Benchmarks:

Quadrant on Snap (with turbo)was like 2414

Quadrant on stock CM is 1340

fps2sd on snap had a standard deviation of about 5

fps2sd on stock CM was around 13

linpack on snap was like 38

linpack on stock CM is like 26
[EVO 4G General] timtlm:
125 still has the bug where it's not showing the signal in the status bar. Also, getting random reboots. The .34 kernel is nice and smooth, but has charging bugs and usb tether is not working. I appreciate all the work knowing how difficult it must be to get the kernel to work from scratch. The .32 kernel (the one that snap 7.6 uses) has HTC source to make it easier to develop.
[EVO 4G General] MSmith1:
No 4G in 6.1 for now. As stated in an earlier post. Also, no HDMI. Oh well...
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
yep... that's why my 9/27 build + snap 7.6 + turbo is a staying put ;) :p
[EVO 4G General] geekykid:
nightly 125 still boot loops after erasing everything. :(
[EVO 4G General] beastmods:
Any word on new snap for 6.1?
[EVO 4G General] beastmods:
What recovery? Rom manager?
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
I does for me too. I'm using clockwork.
[EVO 4G General] beastmods:
Try wiping system under advanced I think.

I use RA.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
I did a complete system wipe. I tried two different times already.
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
I have to wipe with amon to stop the bootloops
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
126 just came out. I'll try that one.
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
nice, so many commits have been entered
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
Hey everyone...I haven't flash to CM6 6.0 or any of the Nightly's for awhile now. I went to the Epic for awhile and hurried up and came back to the Evo. That damn phone (Epic) Suck. But anyways, I'm going to flash Nightly #126 but can someone body please tell which kernel their getting good battery life with..or which kernel would last past 8 hours.

I know battery life depends on the phone usage and everybody's phone usage is completely different but if someone could at least give me an idea of the best kernel to use to achieve 8 hours or more, that wiuld be great.

Thanks
[EVO 4G General] posguy99:
If you're going to flash a current nightly, then your only choice for kernels is the one the nightly comes with.
[EVO 4G General] posguy99:
Ah, #126 fixes the signal icons.
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
Wow...thanks that's good to know. Well if you're currently using a nightly, what kind of battery life is you getting?
[EVO 4G General] geekykid:
Amon recovery. I'll try 126 and update.

edit: same issue. :(
[EVO 4G General] Aerodynamix:
Honestly, I'm getting better battery life with this new .34 kernel than I did with snap. I can't really give a number, but I'd say it's in the neighborhood of 12 hours with what I'd call "moderate usage."
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
Cool..Thanks.Well in that case,I won't flash any kernels then.I'll try it out with the kernel it comes with.
[EVO 4G General] wmdunn:
Full-126 is still boot looping at the splash screen, even with multiple wipes ... I'm tired of trying to make the latest kernel work (lifts white flag in surrender).
[EVO 4G General] rdcrds:
that is why i stayed with my 118 and snap 7.6 with turbo no problems at all but still many bugs but at least works.If i could get 126 to even load up with the kernel it comes with that would be 1 thing but can't even get it to boot.

all i can do is LOL at the idiot who asked me the other day what bugs were still in cm6 LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
Anybody getting any bootloops on the 126 Nightly?

I'm using RA_recovery..I wiped everything 3x's and can't get past the white screen that says "htc evo 4g"

*Edit*

I see someone else is having the same problem. I'll just flash the CM6 Stable until the nightly is fixed.
[EVO 4G General] freddyamazin:
Lmao, edit .. Nevermind
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
perhaps i can offer some reprieve for those poor souls who're getting bootloops...

why don't you wait a day or two before flashing these builds? these are experimental builds with commits that have been pushed all weekend. to expect them to work perfectly is slightly unreasonable. let the dust settle a bit. the kernel has been updated almost 4 times already today and there's still commits being pushed. toast and cyanogen have both confirmed that there are issues with the kernel size, which is causing bootloops for certain evos. have patience, young grasshoppers...
[EVO 4G General] posguy99:
<sigh> Nightlies have bugs. That's why they're nightlies, and not releases.

Sorry you have so much trouble with that concept.
[EVO 4G General] JT man:
Does anybody else having bluetooth issue with the second 10/18 nightly build?
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
excellent advice and contribution to the discussion.

this completely negates any and all respect your previous statement instilled. also, it makes the rest of us senior members look bad. i have no issues discussing this with toast.

ps. i'm making this public for a reason.
[EVO 4G General] azfxstb:
Yup..final straw...sense rom till this $h!t is fixed
[EVO 4G General] drmacinyasha:
Eh, sticking with 126+snap7.6 for now, but yeah, bootlooping here for anything after build 116 with the stock kernel. :(
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
You can still run the 6.0 rofl I.think.its funny people getting ****ty over bugs in"nightly" builds. But hey I recommend the ava9 its pretty damn good

From the fade
[EVO 4G General] kevinbear:
Anyone bootlooping after flashing nightlies, try flashing the latest wimax radio (after flashing any kernel if doing so). No problems since I did that. Only had to do it once it seems, too.

Also, I am running the Snap 7.6 kernel + turbo. But it might work for the regular kernel too.
[EVO 4G General] cyanogen:
Nightly builds might be completely broken at any time, they are automated builds of our source code which has been moving very fast the last few days.

We're feature frozen now, so all effort goes into bugfixes until 6.1 is out. RC1 should show up Tuesday and bug reports will be appreciated :)
[EVO 4G General] jkinnison90:
Awesome. Sounds good.
[EVO 4G General] azfxstb:
Not getting ****ty..its broke..done till the **** is fixed...if thats ****ty im sorry to offend your thin skin :eek:
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
heh.. read cyanogen's post a couple above yours...

that should answer your dilemma with the latest nightlies...
[EVO 4G General] WillJitsu:
I didn't have this issue with 123, but I am with 126. Were you able to resolve it?
[EVO 4G General] OgremustCrush:
Haven't noticed any giant issues with 126 yet, but I also haven't used it a ton either. Feels very smooth and no FC's or reboots so far. Looking forward to being able to walk around with bluetooth on tomorrow and not need to charge every 4 hours :P.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
I've had the names not matching up with phone numbers on caller ID's and text before on other roms even sense ones. What I've done to fix it each time is go into applications and clear data out of the contact manager then let gmail resync my contacts with my phone. Be aware that if your contacts are saved on your phone only this will delete them so have them backed up before doing this.
[EVO 4G General] WillJitsu:
Very strange. The stock Messaging app displays the names with numbers properly. Calls are coming through correctly as well. The only place I notice the problem is in chompSMS. I'll play around with some stuff and see if I can resolve it. Thanks!
[EVO 4G General] OgremustCrush:
Apparently I spoke too soon, my phone is now rebooting out of the blue on build 126. Using stock kernel and I'm not even doing anything with it. D:
[EVO 4G General] cyanogen:
Hard reboot? Pull /proc/last_kmsg and pastebin it for me pls?

Also need to fix the clock speeds in the new kernel, will do that in the morning.
[EVO 4G General] WillJitsu:
Will you be making anymore modifications to the LED code? Ever since the new code was added, we are unable to use the Amber LED as a notification. In apps like chompSMS where you can specify which color LED to use, they all blink green no matter what setting is chosen.
[EVO 4G General] david279:
Another nightly up. Lots of kernel fixes went in.
[EVO 4G General] freddyamazin:
I'm gonna try #126 .. let's see if I don't get bootloops :)
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
use 127, 126 had issues with soft resets. 127 has been ok
[EVO 4G General] wase4711:
ok, 127 seems to work well, if I flash snap 7.6 in the same session....

did NOT try to just use 127 without snap though...

turbo mode can be enabled, and quadrants of around 2350 with it..

we'll see if it works all day..

slightly off topic, has anyone found a theme that works with any of the recent nightlies?
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
the new framework in the nightlies is only a few days old. i don't think there are compatible themes yet.
[EVO 4G General] posguy99:
Why use #127, only to regress by putting Snap on it? That kernel is VERY old compared to what you're putting it on, and does not support anything that's been added to the CM kernel since. No FM radio, no BT fix, etc.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
because he can ?
[EVO 4G General] barnacles10:
Here's why. When I run . 34 kernel on cyanogen my battery slacks. I unplugged last night at 100% and woke up with 82%. No wifi no data. I can make it through the nite losing 2% idle on snap with 3g on. My wifi, when it is on, will disconnect and reconnect constantly at random times. Although its quick, these things are not worth it. Yes I know what I'm doing, so before you say user error, let me justify my thoughts. Ive tried numerous . 34 kernels including snap, netarchy, and cm with the EXACT same results. Sometimes flashed with no wipe, sometimes flashed with a fresh copy of cm.
[EVO 4G General] timtlm:
I believe I was getting hard and soft reboots on 123 & 125. Sometimes it would reboot to the white screen, and others it would reboot by just going to the cm splash screen and would come back up faster. I just flashed 127, and will get you a pastebin of that file if it happens again.
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
this is an isolated issue because it would be totally unacceptable to me if this was happening. though it did happen last night but that was because 125 and 126 kept rebooting, but that's fixed now. I've been playing in my phone for an hour straight and haven't lost that much power
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
.34 has some issues on EVOs. However, I will agree, when it's working, it's a champ.

Swyped from my EVO via the XDA app
[EVO 4G General] dkotoric:
now that the code is frozen, is there any hope that the HDMI will be included in 6.1
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
A code freeze implies no more features are implemented. If it hadn't been committed yet, then it won't be in 6.1. And, no HDMI isn't in 6.1. However, the code will be up soon, so we'll get it in an update later.

USB Tether is working now on .34. Posted this using usb tether!
[EVO 4G General] david279:
Anyone having random disconnect/reconnects of wifi? It just keeps doing it on the last nightly. Its the only problem im having with it. Log attached....it happened twice during this log.
[EVO 4G General] barnacles10:
Yes. I do. On all .34 kernels
[EVO 4G General] dkotoric:
I see, that sucks thats the only reason I have to keep going back and forth from CM6 to Sense
[EVO 4G General] david279:
it never happened before the .34 kernel was refreshed. This is my first problem with it.
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
sense hdmi out sucks. that would be an easy fix probably. the hdmi cm team is working on is full hdmi out for every program or app
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
it was happening after 116. if you install 127, do a wipe before install
[EVO 4G General] david279:
and it stopped doing it with a clean wipe?
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
yes sir. I had the same issue, I wiped then reinstalled 127, and it has not lost connection in the last hour
[EVO 4G General] david279:
ok cool. thanks. Now i can use my slingbox again!!!
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
This has happened to me with every single build of CM I've used. Hopefully this will be fixed with 6.1!
[EVO 4G General] illmaticone:
anyone having trouble with initial a2dp connectivity?

ex scenario:

1. bt on the evo is turned on

2. i power on my a2dp device, which then attempts to connect to my evo

3. my evo will get stuck on connecting to the a2dp device.

i would have to turn my bluetooth off, and then turn it back on and initiate the connection from my evo. this happens about 75% of the time.

I only have this problem with my evo, dunno if an android thing, a cm thing, or an evo thing. but i dont have any of these problems with an iphone4 [ just prove evidence to support this issue being isolated to the evo ]

thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
I think he means disconnecting after like only 2 minutes or so, pretty much unusuable
[EVO 4G General] david279:
Im not having this problem and im using a jabra BT8010, the bluetooth headphones/headset.
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
Went from 116 to 127 this morning, only wiped cache and dalvik. All seems to be running well. Got my power control in the notification bar, and so far wifi seems stable, but i been at work and havent been on my phone as much as usual. also couldnt check music drain as i got a ride to work today. all in all though 127 seems very solid. running the stock kernel got quadrant ave of 1477. No setcpu, or other OC app either. :D
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
good, I was beginning to think I was the only one who thought 127 was perfect so far. it did take the wipe to make it perfect though but no problem.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
never had the wifi troubles myself
[EVO 4G General] toastcfh:
those with epson panels can confirm its work? (the latest nightly)
[EVO 4G General] WillJitsu:
This same thing started happening for me on the latest nightly. WiFi was working fine for me before that.
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:

Hardware V2 Nova here. 127 is the first nightly after 116 that booted with the stock kernel. Seems good so far. Too bad it still doesn't' recognize my official HTC EVO car dock and charger.
[EVO 4G General] david279:
I think the problem might be with my router. I have a airport extreme and i just did a long reset and havent had a disconnect for the last 10 min. I had been having them every min or so.

ok man im here to try and help :) get me these logs and pastebin them. pm me the links.

thanx and yeah please pm me the links to pastebins. what i need u to do is run the logs and connect to ur dock, charger, or whatever while the logs are running. also if u could do the same running a kernel or rom that it works in that would be great for me to compare too. again thanx and i look forward to ur reply :)

[EVO 4G General] thedarksavant:
If you have Turbo enabled, then you will need to do a full wipe to get the stock kernel to not bootloop. At least until v2 of the turbo app comes out that lets you disable it from the app.

[EVO 4G General] timtlm:
I've had this issue as well. I believe the evo had this problem when it was first released on the stock rom. It was fixed in an ota update. I assume something in the kernel needs to be adjusted to fix it.

It goes on and off, testing mode, not to mention that I live in the City. It is really a battery juice drainer now.

I though 6.1 was suppose to bring 4G alone :(. Well we are heading to RC1 tomorrow, hopefully along the way with the nightlys and RC to Stable 6.1, maybe 4G will be there :)

that'll be in tonight's build, and i think that's referring to streaming audio. i'm not sure if it'll also affect aac encoding for the camcorder.
